A ONE-ON-ONE EXPERIENCE. Students receive
up-close and personal instruction from Dr. Beth
Leuck as she points out information on a computer
screen during a biology lab. Junior Jean Ancelet
says, "Teachers work hard at putting things into
context and with working one-on-one with students
rather than being figure-heads."

being unforgettable."

SWINGIN'

ADDING HONOR TO THE NAME. French professor Dana
Kress was selected for the I'Ordre des Palmes Academiques. A
knighthood established by Napoleon, the honor is the highest
academic distinction offered by the French government. "It is a
privilege to teach French in Louisiana, the one francophone state in
the union. I owe a tremendous debt to all those students who work
so hard on so many projects and to the administration of the College
for the strong support they have always shown," says Dr. Kress.

creating a bond...

The more things change,
the more they stay the same.
Although Centenary College has not always made
it's home in Louisiana, many people through the
years have made their home at Centenary Col-
lege. The uniqe atmosphere and strong tradition
bring enchantment to the hearts of many while
leaving memories of love and loyalty that last a
lifetime. An intimacy flows throughout the campus
that unites the students and staff into family. As
students go through the journey of growth and
discovery in their college years, they may encoun-
ter changes in their lives. While some things may
change in their time at Centenary one thing will
always stay the same: they will always have a
family here and a home where everybody knows

their name.

By: Nikki Doughty
Forming long-lasting friendships and close-knit bonds
proved to be a fun and exciting task for students this
year as there were a variety of activities and events for
everyone to enjoy. Freshmen wasted no time getting to
know their new family in a fun-filled Orientation week.
Working out with buddies in the new fitness center
became a popular activity for those who wanted to get
in shape, and playing intramural sports on the Jones-
Rice field gave students the chance to show off their
athletic skills. Members of the campus community also
got to know not only each other's artistic sides through
the coffeehouses, but their dark sides as well through
scary Freak Week events. The Centenary family came
together as faculty and students opened their arms to
neighborhood kids during Halloween, and they worked
hard to show prospective students why they should
choose Centenary to be their home, too. No matter
what, when, or where the event, students always knew
what was happening and came together to make it a fun
time and a great memory to hold onto forever.

VIBRANT VOCALS. A variety of
acts could be found at the Student
Coffeehouse. Third place went to a
singer, Junior Amanda Rundell. "I feel
it's a great way to exhibit all the talent
on campus," Rundell says of the event.

MAKING A CONNECTION. For

some students the coffeehouse is more
than just a competition. "When I write
about lost love I want the crowd to
weep; when I write about my wedding I
want them all to feel like they were there
with me. I play to employ empathy among
open ears," Senior Zach Vaughn said.

COFFEE AND CHAOS. CAB mem-
bers work hard to organize each coffee-
house event, and of course, serve coffee.
"People are always coming up demand-
ing free stuff, and we always manage to
break a coffee pot. It's very hectic," Junior
CAB member Erin Bryan said.

It's neat to see some of our fellow
classmates that have talent, and the others'

talent is just their plain craziness.

-Dana Beyert, Junior

STRIP-TEASE. Although most acts include a talent such
as singing or acting, some are a little less conventional. Keep-
ing in tradition, Sophomore Drew Sutton came out to sing and
strip once again. "Craziness at its best," Sutton said.

knows the

answers

By: Nikki Doughty
Students worked hard this year to get everything they
could out of their top-notch education. Small classes
allowed professors the opportunity to get to know and
work one-on-one with their pupils. Students were chal-
lenged to explore subject matter more thoroughly through
class presentations. They got to help and explore not
only the city through Service Learning projects but also
the world through May Modules. Students who could
not make it out of the country got to form special bonds
and learn a little bit about other parts of the world from
exchange students. Some over-achievers decided to
work on getting their foot in the door by taking on
internships. The campus community recognized those
students who went above and beyond in their academic
careers at the annual Honors Convocation. During
mid-terms and finals students could be found with
their heads buried in massive piles of books as they tried
to cram in that last chapter. All the hard work paid off for
seniors when graduation finally rolled around, and they
said good-bye to those faces they had known every day
for the last four (or five) years. The journey to knowing
all the answers was not quick or easy, but it offered
some interesting and exciting sights along the way.

really help overcome such a problem. ..plus they are just fun."

LAST MINUTE DETAILS. On the front
porch of James Dorm Sophomore Christy Finch
and Senior Maria Saucier put their heads together
one last time to put all the details in place for their
presentation. "I definitely prefer group presenta-
tions over individual presentations. Standing in
front of a classroom by yourself is a form of mental
torture for shy people," says Finch.

"I support using visual aids during presentations. They
provide visual stimulation to the oral presentation and facili-
tate a more interesting environment in which to learn."
Sophomore Cody McDonald

"I think that visual aids add to the presentation. They also
help the audience understand and follow along with the
presentation."

Sophomore Greg Coates

"Visual aids keep the audience's attention, give excitement
to the presentation, and provide a visual picture to help the
audience understand the information."

Juniors Margaret Read and Amanda Taylor

was done similar to a paint-by-number system so anyone could help. Senior loanna Panos uses her artistic
ability as she works diligently on a section of the piece for her Service Learning project.

might have flunked anyway, '"says King.

IT ALL ADDS UP. Even those last minutes of cramming can
help make the difference between a higher or lower percentage

58 [organizations

knows how to^ contribute

By: Nikki Doughty
The organizational fair is a much-anticipated event as
students eagerly wander through the maze of tables
trying to decide on which sign-up sheets they should
write their names. Joining an organization offers stu-
dents not only an opportunity to allow their individual
talents to shine, but also a chance to make a contribu-
tion back to the campus or neighboring community. The
SGA contributes to the campus community by making
sure it is a more enjoyable place for all. Students who
have shined in their academic talents and campus
involvement are selected for Maroon Jackets and/or
ODK, organizations in which they give back to the
community through various service projects. CAB
members contribute much to student entertainment by
organizing many fun events throughout the year. Stu-
dents with special vocal talent are given the opportunity
to shine in the prestigious Choir, and the Hall Councils
and RH A work to make residence life as fun as possible
for those fortunate enough to live on campus. Students
with special communication skills may become involved
in any of the media organizations, including The Con-
glomerate , Pandora , and KSCL. With so many orga-
nizations and so much talent going around, everyone
knows how to make a contribution.

"CAB is an organization that provides students with a unique opportunity.

The more students who voice their opinion to CAB members, or who join

campus events could be."

Sophomore Susanna Miller, News Editors, work on a Wednesay night, the dreaded layout night.
Chatelain and Miller edited the entire newspaper, wrote stories, and found at least a million errors
over the course of the year. McClanahan made lots of orders, wrote crass editorials, and tried
to keep the ship above water.

Q U O T

"If I hadn't been part of The Conglomerate, my college career would have

been very incomplete. It taught me several valuable lessons, gave me the

opportunity to see what i was capable of, and greatly helped me find

quality employment upon graduation. College life goes by very quickly.

Putting my thoughts in print sure helped slow it down."

Senior Evan Mc Clanahan, Editor-in-Chief

HANGING AROUND. Senior
Melanie Russell and Junior Crystal Carter
also helped make The Conglomerate a
reality. Russell took the assignment of a
full A&E page and, as editor, filled it
consistently from week to week. Carter,
a newcomer to The Conglomerate, wrote
lucid and descriptive stories and turned
them in promptly on time, a rare feat in
The Conglomerate's history.

Why Should Someone
Become Involved In
The Conglomerate?

"I think it is great to become involved with The
Conglomerate because it is really important to get

hope to use later in life. Last but not least, a little extra
money never hurt anyone."

Ashlie Daigle,

Features Editor

"Becoming involved with The Conglomerate is per-
haps the best way to make connections all over
campus. Every time you write a story, you establish
contact with the students, administrators, or faculty.
Conversely, others come to recognize you through
your work with the paper."

knows new -^ memories

By: Nikki Doughty
After working hard to rack up those hours students
are excited to classify themselves into their new cat-
egory of sophomore, junior, or senior. Then there are
the freshmen, who are thrilled to be out of high school
and eager to become upperclassmen. No matter which
grade classification they are a part of, the students
eventually merge into one big group, becoming a family.
You can find them at any of the campus hangouts or in
the SUB watching The Price is Right . Boys have no
problem meeting girls thanks to the boy/girl ratio, and
the rising number of engagements proves that some
couples were lucky enough to find true love. Room-
mates may have fought like siblings from time to time,
but at least they didn't have their parents around telling
them to clean their dorm rooms. A rash of student
crimes broke out over the year. Maybe it was those
seniors going through senioritis! Campus eating turned
out to be a sensitive topic, and students looked forward
to breaks when they could get some nice home-cooked
meals. Much excitement buzzed around campus as
students interacted through their daily activities, and as
their bonds grew stronger new memories formed to last
a lifetime.

knows about-^ teamwork

By: Nikki Doughty
Teamwork and friendships were a common theme
among athletes, and no matter what the scoreboard
said they all knew they came together as a team to put
up a good fight against their opponents. The Ladies'
Soccer team enjoyed the sweet smell of victory with a
15-4 record, and Senior Lara Brown kicked her way to
a ranking of number one in points and goals per game.
The Baseball team enjoyed their new locker room and
the new Shehee stadium, and some students felt a
twinge of jealousy when they, along with the Ladies'
Softball team, got to play in a tournament in Hawaii.
With the Leading Ladies and the Cheerleaders yelling
their support, the Gents' Basketball team pulled out
eight wins, but not even the leaks in the Gold Dome
could stop Senior Ronnie McCollum from emerging as
the leading scorer in the nation. The Ladies' Basket-
ball worked hard to improve their skills, and with their
strong team spirit and new coach David Winkler they
look forward to a winning season next year. The
Volleyball team earned their 1 1 wins with lots of prac-
tice and a strong emphasis on teamwork. Although
some teams enjoyed more victory than others, each
member contributed to his or her team a unique talent
and a heartfelt effort that her or she can always be proud
of.

r Juggling the ball
on the sidelines is a popular way to stay
warmed up for a game. Players always
have to be ready to go into a game at a
moment's notice.

DUGOUT

Sev-
eral players sit
in the dugout
while they pay
close attention
to the game out
in the field.
Hanging out in
the dugout
gives players a
chance to col-

thoughts about
games and
about baseball
in general.
Freshman
Tony Cardone
says, "My fa-
vorite things
about baseball
are the fans and
all of the history
that comes
along with the
game."

"My favorite
memory is the
home run I hit
against Ne-
braska, and we
won the game."

respect for their opponents' talented moves on the field.

Editor's note: We originally planned for this page to feature the tennis
teams. However, we are unable to feature tennis due to lack of pictures,
so this page is now a hodgepodge of photographs we have of sports, hut we
are able to feature the scores from the tennis matches. The yearbook staff

By: Nikki Doughty
The bonds Greek members form within the Greek
system are priceless and long-lasting. There are many
opportunities for Greek members to strengthen their
f riendships.The Panhellenic and Interf raternity Coun-
cils work to make sure Greek life is the best it can be for
everyone. Rush is anticipated each year as Greeks
welcome new members to their organizations, and
soon after, sacred bonds are formed as big and little
sisters and brothers are united. Each organization
works to help out the community, whether it is ZetaTau
Alpha working to promote breast cancer awareness or
Kappa Alpha working for the Muscular Dystrophy As-
sociation. Swaps, such as the Chi Omega/Tau Kappa
Epsilon Mice Races, provide the perfect opportunity to
kick back and relax. Theme parties like Kappa Sigma's
South Seas orTheta Chi's Rummage and Reggae are
a hit with the whole campus since everyone is allowed
to join in the fun. Formals are a great chance to get
dressed up and share an evening of dinner and dancing
with their dates and other chapter members. Another
addition to all the fun events is Greek Week, an annual
event for all Greek members to come together for a
week of fun and games. Whether it's through a service
project, a study group, or a party, special bonds are
formed that Greeks learn to cherish for a lifetime.

what is the best accomplishment of the year?

"I was fortunate enough to at-
tend the National Panhellenic

Panhellenic's involvement on
campus for next year."

Melissa Guillory, Junior

"The fact that IFC actually ex-
ists!"

Andrew Irby, Sophomore

"Panhellenic produced two
great fundraisers this year: the
Irish kissing booth and a fabu-
lous car wash. I really appreci-
ate all the help that other mem-
bers of the council gave me so
that the events ran smoothly."

what's your favorite
part of greek life?

"My favorite part of Greek life is the

sisterhood/brotherhood that is

developed between the members

of each organization. Not only are

there bonds created just within a

particular sorority or fraternity, but

each group creates a link with each

other. The memories that are

created within my Greek life at

Centenary will stay with me long

after I have left."

knows kind ^^ support

By: Nikki Doughty

As the midterms and presentations pile up on stu-
dents all at once, they feel encouraged by all the support
friends and family show them. A "you can do it" or a "you
are so smart" can really go a long way. Several
students' parents chose to honor the achievements
their son or daughter has made throughout his/her
college career, and those displays of appreciation can
be found throughout this section.

A major effort was made by the yearbook staff to
include as many students as possible throughout the
book. This was done with a Blacklist, which helped us
keep track of how often a student was used in the book.
After a student was featured a few times we tried to
avoid using him/her. Of course, some students are so
involved on campus that they are featured many times.
We would like to congratulate Jean Ancelet for being the
first person to be blacklisted! The names of students
used in the book and the pages they can be found on are
included in the index.

Thanks to the support of parents and the campus and
neighboring community, students are able to achieve
great success in their valuable college days. On behalf
of our students, thank you for your support.

Greg,

God has truly blessed us having you in our lives . You
have given us so much joy and happiness through the
years. Watching you achieve the early developmental
milestones was fascinating. Watching you at Christmas
as you anxiously awaited Santas visit was simply
delightful. Watching you give hugs and good-night
kisses warmed our hearts. Watching your success in
school made us feel fortunate . Watching you grow into
a fine young man makes us very proud. We will
continue to be watching with admiration and pride as
you successfully achieve your goals in life . We love you
very much. "Two-ten."

that can't be broken

Whether it was the opening of the new fitness
center, the addition of new faculty and staff, or the
change of SGA presidents, change was definitely
in the air at Centenary. However, one thing stayed
exactly the same, and that is the closeness stu-
dents feel with each other during their college
days. As Centenary continues to grow, so do the
friendships and bonds that are created within its
walls. As old faces end thier college careers and
enter the real world, fresh new faces will continue

to come in and bring the life to Centenary that

makes it so special. Through the years things will

continue to grow and change, but one thing will

forever remain the same: the unique intimacy

among its people that makes Centenary College

such a special place, a place where everybody

knows your name.

m Doiigfity: Editor

As I sit here and write the final page of this book I am slowly beginning to grasp the realization that
my job here is finished. Although I have worked on five other yearbooks in the past, this was by far the
most challenging due to the complete independence I was granted during my year as editor. By the
end of this process I can conclude that despite all the long, tiring, frustrating hours that went into this
book, I am happy to have had this experience. One of the things I learned to appreciate most through
this past year is the warmth and support of the students and faculty at this college. Their support in my
final weeks of finishing this book was amazing. The way they pitched in to help, whether by loaning
pictures or lending an ear for me to vent my frustrations, is one thing that truly carried me to this point:
the final page. As a result, I am more proud than ever to be a part of this college family.

My main goal for this book was to make it different, and I tackled that through the design of the
layouts. It was my goal to feature as many students as possible thoughout the book, and that was
achieved through an increase in pictures and quotes. So for those of you who are looking for the stories,
you will find them told by your fellow peers through their quotes. You are the ones who lived through
these experiences and made them happen, so you should be the ones to tell them.

I would like to conclude by thanking my family and friends for all their support. Thank you for believing
in me so much! I want to thank the faculty and my staff, especially those of you who completed all your
assignments! Also, thank you, David Baker. It has been an honor and a pleasure working with you these
past few years.

So that's it! My work here is complete! I hope all of you have enjoyed the 75th volume of the
Yoncopin. -Nikki Doughty

In Topeka, Kansas Josten's Publishing Company
printed the 75th volume of the Yoncopin. The paper is 80
pound Gloss textpaper. The cover is custom embossed
using school artwork. The material is Matte Black 480
with applications in Silver #329 silkscreen and Silver Foil
#480. An overgrain of people faces was used on front and
back. The theme logo was designed by Amy Waguespack.
The binding is smyth sewn with rounding and backing.
The endsheets are Snow White #280 with the front
printed in black using a school design. All layouts were
designed by Nikki Doughty on Pagemaker 6.5 and
Pagemaker 5.0. Sean Gilder was Photo Editor.Grade
classifications for students were obtained from the
Registrar's office. The basic font for the yearbook was
Helvetica, and Alleycat was the theme font.

This book would never have been published without
the enthusiastic support of David Baker, our Jostens
representative. We couldn't have done it without you!
Also, we would like to extend our enormous appreciation
to the Public Relations department for letting us hassle
them all year for photographs. We would also like to thank
the SGA, Dr. Nicoletti, Kristin Jenkins (our Jostens in-
plant consultant), Sonja Smith, Sports Information, and
everyone else who offered their help and support through-
out the past year. Most importantly, we would like to thank
the students, for this book would not exist without their
help.
